On January 1, 2019, Baznik Company adopted a defined benefit pension plan. At that time, Baznik awarded retroactive benefits to certain employees. These retroactive benefits resulted in a prior service cost of $1,200,000 on that date (which it did not fund). Baznik has six participating employees who are expected to receive the retroactive benefits. Following is a schedule that identifies the participating employees and their expected years of future service as of January 1, 2019:

Employee

A 1
B 3
C 4
D 5
E 5
F 6

Baznik decided to amortize the prior service cost to pension expense using the years-of-future-service method. The following are the amounts of the components of Baznik’s pension expense, in addition to the amortization of the prior service cost for 2019 and 2020:

2019

2020

Service cost $397,300 $567,423
Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 104,100 150,337
Expected return on plan assets 90,300

Baznik contributed $772,700 and $875,300 to the pension fund at the end of 2019 and 2020, respectively.

Required:

1. Next Level Prepare a set of schedules for Baznik to determine (a) the amortization fraction for each year and (b) the amortization of the prior service cost.
2.

Next Level Prepare all the journal entries related to Baznik’s pension plan for 2019 and 2020.

Your assignment consists of different question styles including discussion questions, reports, exercises, problem questions and spreadsheet questions. It assesses learning outcomes as listed in the assignment rationale below.

The purpose of this assignment is to continue to develop skills in costing systems with an emphasis on the role of control in managing the production of goods and services efficiently in the workplace. Each question builds on the knowledge gained through the first assignment to develop the concepts of management accounting control through costing. Each question uses realistic data and professional practices similar to that found in workplaces.

Question 1: Budget (20 marks in total)

Resort Island University is preparing its budget for the upcoming academic year. This is a specialised private university that charges fees for all degree courses. Currently, 15,000 students are enrolled on campus. However, the university is forecasting a 5 % growth in student numbers in the coming year, despite an increase in fees of $3,500 per subject. The following additional information has been gathered from an examination of the university records and conversations with university managers:

  • Resort Island is planning to award scholarships to 150 students, which will cover their fees.
  • The average class has 80 students, and the typical student takes 4 subjects per semester. Resort Island operates 2 semesters per year.
  • The average academic staff salary is $120,000 per annum including on-costs.
  • Resort Island's academic staff are evaluated on the basis of teaching, research administration and professional/community service. Each of the academic staff teaches the equivalent of three subjects during the academic year.

Required:

  1. Prepare a revenue budget for the upcoming academic year
  2. Determine the number of staff needed to cover classes.
  3. Assume there is a shortage of full-time academic staff. List at least five actions that Resort Island might take to accommodate the growing student numbers.
  4. You have been requested by the university's deputy vice chancellor (DVC) to construct budgets for other areas of operation (such as library, grounds, cafeteria, and maintenance). The DVC noted: 'The most important resource of the university is academic staff. Now that you know the number of staff needed, you can prepare the other budgets. Academic staff are indeed the key driver - without them we don't operate.' Does the DVC really understand the linkages with the budgeting process? Explain.
